Effective Monday April 15, 2019 the Cannabis Division of the Mendocino County Department of Planning and Building Services will accept applications for renewals of annual cannabis cultivation permits. The Cannabis Division will not be making appointments for annual permit application reviews.
All Cannabis Cultivation Renewal Permit applications will be submitted through the cannabis drop box located in the main lobby area of Planning and Building Services at 860 North Bush Street, Ukiah, CA, 95482.
Eligibility to renew your cultivation permit first requires an updated status from the Mendocino County Department of Planning and Building regarding your compliance plan, if applicable. If your cultivation permit was issued with restrictions, identified in the Compliance Plan, a complete application for each and every County permit that is required to clear the violations listed in the Compliance Plan must be submitted before the Cannabis Division will accept a renewal application for cultivation. Applicants who fail to comply with the Compliance Plan are not eligible to renew until they do so.
All application submission packets must be placed in an 8 ½ X 11 inch manila envelope labeled with the date of submission, applicant name, phone number, mailing address and cultivation site address.
